Pet care experience
Let me be your pet's 2nd parent
**Please take a few minutes to read my profile in its entirety. That way, you can see if I'm a good fit for you and your pets before messaging me.** I just don’t think that there’s anything better than having a pet in your life! They’re always there for you, and they make us so happy! That selfless happiness has always inspired me to give back to them however I could. This is what led me to become a full-time pet sitter. I also substitute teach for Broward County Public Schools on the side. Although I love being around pets, I also know how much care they need to thrive. I love being able to bring a smile to an animal’s face, and it’s so nice to give owners peace of mind as well.

Safety, trust & environment
When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a complimentary 30-minute Meet-and-Greet (M&G). M&Gs are a great way to make sure that we’re all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pet and your care expectations. No one knows your pet better than you do, so it’s always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pet tick! Finally, I just love meeting new animals! I like to get down on their level to show them that I’m a welcome presence, here to make friends, and I’m sure that we’ll be best buddies in no time at all.
Ratings and reviews
Stella was absolutely wonderful! She stayed at my home and cared for my dog for over two weeks, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She took excellent care of him and sent me updates every single day, which gave me tremendous peace of mind while I was away. It was clear throughout my trip that my dog was happy, comfortable, and in great hands. Having someone I could trust not only with my dog but also with my home for such an extended period was incredibly important to me, and Stella exceeded my expectations. She is dependable, attentive, communicative, and genuinely caring. I would absolutely trust Stella to watch my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter. Five stars!
Stella as great! she checked in often with pictures and updates. We live in a condo so we appreciate her patience with the elevators and other pets. We will definitely be booking with her in the future. Thank you Stella for watching our two fur babies!
Thank you, Stella. She did an amazing job.
Stella was wonderful with my older cat. She requires medication and all went well! I’ll definitely be contacting Stella the next time we need a sitter!
Great person and straight forward visit. Harrison was happy and we were very pleased. Would use again.
Thank you Stella.

Schedule
My service area is within 20mi of my home in Dania. Cross-streets close to me are Sheridan St and US-1/S Federal Hwy. My hours of operation for both messaging and services are 8am-9pm. For house sitting, I do stay overnight, but walks should not be expected outside my business hours. One of the best things about me as a sitter is that I have lots of flexibility! I’m here to make sure that your pet has care right when they need it. *Note: My Holiday Rate will apply for all Rover.com recognized holidays as well as Broward County Schools Winter and Spring Breaks.

- Some things I like to learn ahead of time: When would be a convenient time to schedule a 30 minute Meet-and-Greet (M&G)? What’s your preferred method of communication? Does your pet have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? Is your pet spayed/neutered? Is your pet up-to-date with vaccinations? Does your dog like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? What’s the best way to spoil your pet?
